The Athenians sent a fleet under Cleopompus to the coast of Locris and for the defense of Euboea. The expedition landed on Locris, captured Thronium, and defeated the local forces.
ὑπὸ δὲ τὸν αὐτὸν χρόνον τοῦτον Ἀθηναῖοι τριάκοντα ναῦς ἐξέπεμψαν περὶ τὴν Λοκρίδα καὶ Εὐβοίας ἅμα φυλακήν·1 ἐστρατήγει δὲ αὐτῶν Κλεόπομπος ὁ Κλεινίου.
About this same time, the Athenians dispatched thirty ships around Locris and at the same time for the defense of Euboea; and Cleopompus, the son of Cleinias, was in command of them.
καὶ ἀποβάσεις ποιησάμενος τῆς τε παραθαλασσίου ἔστιν ἃ2 ἐδῄωσε καὶ Θρόνιον εἷλεν, ὁμήρους τε ἔλαβεν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐν Ἀλόπῃ τοὺς βοηθήσαντας Λοκρῶν3 μάχῃ ἐκράτησεν.
Having made landings, he ravaged some parts of the coastal territory and captured Thronium, taking hostages from them; and at Alope he defeated in battle those of the Locrians who had come to the rescue.
- 2.26.1Εὐβοίας ἅμα φυλακήν
Εὐβοίας is an objective genitive dependent on the noun φυλακήν (defense, guard), meaning 'for the defense of Euboea.'
- 2.26.2τῆς τε παραθαλασσίου ἔστιν ἃ
ἔστιν ἃ (some parts) is an idiomatic combination of the verb ἔστιν and the relative pronoun ἅ (neuter plural accusative) acting as the direct object of ἐδῄωσε. The genitive τῆς ... παραθαλασσίου is a partitive genitive modifying this phrase, meaning 'some parts of the coastal territory.'
- 2.26.2τοὺς βοηθήσαντας Λοκρῶν
Λοκρῶν is a partitive genitive qualifying the substantivized participle τοὺς βοηθήσαντας (those who came to help), meaning 'those of the Locrians who had come to the rescue.'
